“Just leaving Twitter HQ code review https://t.co/pYcXRTJm14”
“First World Cup match on Sunday! Watch on Twitter for best coverage & real-time commentary.”
“Note, this applies just to the individual tweet, not the whole account”
“New Twitter policy is freedom of speech, but not freedom of reach. Negative/hate tweets will be max deboosted & demonetized, so no ads or other revenue to Twitter. You won’t find the tweet unless you specifically seek it out, which is no different from rest of Internet.”
“What should Twitter do next?”
“@WholeMarsBlog Record numbers of users are logging in to see if Twitter is dead, ironically making it more alive than ever!”

“@JuliusSinghania @wongmjane X will be the everything app”
“@RationalBlonde With new release, changing your verified name will cause loss of checkmark until name is confirmed by Twitter to meet Terms of Service”
“@TweetsOfJee @RationalBlonde 🤣”
“@schrep True. Server side can (and has been) brute-forced, but that can’t solve weak Internet connections & older phones. Worth noting that Twitter in India & many other countries is slow even on latest iPhone.”
“@schrep There are ~1200 “microservices” server side, of which ~40 are critical to Twitter working at all, according to server control team. Trimming down that 1200 number, reducing data usage, serialized trips & simplifying app are all needed to improve speed of use.”
“@schrep Twitter is very slow in India, Indonesia & many other countries. This is fact, not “claim”. 10 to 15 secs to refresh homeline tweets is common. Sometimes, it doesn’t work at all, especially on Android phones. Only question is how much delay is due to bandwidth/latency/app.”
“@mayemusk @Twitter @instagram @Fidias0 🤗”
“@Popeska @sampullara Why is Twitter unusably slow in many countries? Seems odd that this would be bandwidth only.”
“Twitter is All the News”
“@alexeheath This is an external analysis, not from Twitter. It is lower than Twitter’s published mDAU.”
“@sampullara And we will finally stop adding what device a tweet was written on (waste of screen space & compute) below every tweet. Literally no one even knows why we did that …”
“@sampullara Part of today will be turning off the “microservices” bloatware. Less than 20% are actually needed for Twitter to work!”
“@sampullara I was told ~1200 RPCs independently by several engineers at Twitter, which matches # of microservices. The ex-employee is wrong. Same app in US takes ~2 secs to refresh (too long), but ~20 secs in India, due to bad batching/verbose comms. Actually useful data transferred is low.”
“@EricFrohnhoefer @MEAInd True, the food is great. The fact that you don’t realize that there are up to 1200 “microservices” being called when someone uses the Twitter app is not great.”
“@chainsawdotcom @CL207 SpaceX Starlink bought a tiny – not large – ad package to test effectiveness of Twitter advertising in Australia & Spain. Did same for FB/Insta/Google.”
“@Fwiz @SawyerMerritt Join Twitter!”
“@EricFrohnhoefer Twitter is super slow on Android. What have you done to fix that?”
“@_hawko False. Twitter spends $13M/year on food service for SF HQ. Badge in records show peak occupancy was 25%, average occupancy below 10%. There are more people preparing breakfast than eating breakfast. They don’t even bother serving dinner, because there is no one in the building.”
“@HSajwanization I hope they keep cursing me on Twitter, as it increases advertising revenue!”
“Btw, I’d like to apologize for Twitter being super slow in many countries. App is doing >1000 poorly batched RPCs just to render a home timeline!”
“@johnkrausphotos Ultimately, I think there is no choice but for Twitter to be the final arbiter, but I’m open to suggestions”
